Heading home

We were blessed once again with a beautifully sunny day. The temperatures are definitely a lot cooler down south than our northern adventures but we really have been fortunate with the weather the whole way. The only significant rain has been on long driving days and hasn’t had any impact upon us. We have had amazing weather for all our aquatic adventures and the eclipse day was flawlessly blue skies (unlike the day before and after).
We ended our time in Fremantle with a walk around the markets - first to the ones at Pier B (that sadly looked rather tacky) and then to the markets near the Sail & Anchor to grab some coffee and Claire to buy some jewellery.
Walking around a different town whilst on holidays imparts a different feel. No work pressures. No need to race to appointments or pay bills. It was as if everyone else is busy racing around but for us, time stands still. And so as we packed the car there were university students racing past (Notre Damme university has many of the heritage buildings in Fremantle) worrying about their next assignment, whereas for us life restarts when we touchdown in Sydney.
We made our way to the airport via Cottesloe beach and the city of Perth (just a drive past) to board our plane for the trip home.
As we headed east, somewhere down there was Macca and Fi and the boys also making their way eastward.
I’m looking forward to getting home and downloading all my photos once I sort out the MacBook.
We hope they everyone’s has enjoyed following our journey.Read more
